Braincats: an innovative financial advisory firm that scales with Holded
Braincats, a financial advisory firm in Barcelona, explains how Holded enables collaborative accounting, reduces manual errors, and saves time on low-value tasks.
Braincats is an innovative financial advisory firm in Barcelona that positions itself as a strategic financial partner, not a traditional accounting firm. They operate as an outsourced finance department offering tailored solutions to each client.
How does Braincats differ from a traditional accounting firm?
We immerse ourselves deeply in each client's operations and value chain so they can make strategic decisions based on real-time financial data. Traditional accounting treated the accountant as a black box. Our collaborative model transforms accountants into value-adding advisors while increasing clients' financial literacy and engagement.
What problems did Holded solve for your clients?
We struggled with document collection for tax filings. Holded's document upload features, whether through the app or email forwarding, eliminated monthly documentation requests. Additionally, Holded's self-service reporting capabilities reduce intermediary delays. The reduction in errors from manual data handling and the time savings on low-value tasks represent enormous advantages.
Which features do your clients value most?
Initially, straightforward invoicing attracted users coming from Excel. Now, reconciliation rules and comprehensive reports are the most-used features. Holded allows us to scale our boutique model while maintaining quality. Our three-year business plan shows clear profitability improvements and expanded client capacity.
